Okinawa Main Island Private Tours

“Fantastic tour with Harry-san”

Our group of two people did the 2-day 'Tracing the Front Line!' Okinawa battlefield tour with Harry-san, and thoroughly enjoyed it. Harry-san is a hugely knowledgeable guide, an excellent and enthusiastic communicator, and a very interesting and curious person. We got on very well with him and found the two days thoroughly enjoyable. As two people with a keen interest in the Pacific War, we were really hoping that our guide would be able to teach us new things about the battle. Harry-san most certainly did this, and was also able to provide us with a much deeper knowledge of the island of Okinawa, its wider history, and its culture. We were hugely grateful for this aspect of the tour, which made the military history all the more poignant. We were also interested in trying traditional local Okinawan cuisine, which Harry-san accommodated easily into our tour days. I feel we've come away from our short time in Okinawa with a far greater appreciation for both the battle and the island, both past and present, and I am certainly keen to visit again. I would hugely recommend Harry-san as a guide to anyone. We asked him a lot of questions, but he gave us only considered, thoughtful, and informative answers. 5 stars without question. Thanks so much Harry-san! We hope to see you again sometime! Best, Alex

Dear Alex-san, Thank you so much for your wonderful review and for joining the 2-day Tracing the Front Line! tour. I am very happy to hear that you not only enjoyed learning about the battle but also about Okinawa’s culture and history. By understanding the daily lives of the people here, the reality of the war at those same places becomes much more tangible, and I’m glad this resonated with you. It was a real pleasure spending time with both of you and sharing stories, questions, and meals together. I would love to see you again in Okinawa or Yamanashi! Next time, let’s explore the northern forest of Okinawa and visit the fish market in Naha together. Wishing you all the best until we meet again. Warm regards, Harry

Hi, Mike & Diana Thank you for taking the time and to write a nice review. I'm sure you have researched Okinawa and become very familiar with it through the courses you took yourself and the courses we took together. I hope, share this story with your students and may the memories of your trip remain with forever. Thank you for the photo. Regards Tateo U.

“An informative tour and great learning experience.”

We had an excellent day out with Noriko. Noriko was an exceptional guide. She was very friendly, welcoming , pleasant and very knowledgable about our tour and Okinawa life in general. Even though the weather was raining and at times a little windy, this did not detract from the enjoyment of the tour and a great day out with Noriko. Noriko fulfilled our requirements of our tour and went that little extra to ensure we had an enjoyable day. Noriko’s command of the English language was excellent and we had no problems in understanding her and we enjoyed great conversations. We would highly recommend Noriko as your tour guide and we would have no hesitation to book her again if we return to Okinawa. Paul & Alison from England
